It may sound better to play it in G with a capo on the fifth fret, but that's entirely up to you.
The riff sounds better without a capo.
C F C C = Riff (You basically pick out the notes in F)
CMiami woman so fine and fair
GI try and try but I can't get anywhere
DmI sail out under the Fsun
DmLooking for my darling, my onFly one
DmI sail all day, and when the daFy is done
CShe's still the one I want to see
G C Riff(x2)
I must find that Florida Key
CCollins Avenue, Fifth Street and Main
GI walk up and down but it's all in vain
DmMy only darling is goFne
DmTook everything and put it out Fon the lawn
DmAnd Jim came and got it and he Fgave it to John
CIt's getting harder and harder to be me
G C Riff(x2)
I must find that Florida Key
CJust standing on the curb watching for boats
GWhile them boys and girls pass by on their big silver goats
DmI'm getting out while the gettingF is good
DmIn my ship of steel or in my shipF of wood
DmOne more time I'm gonna do just lFike I should
CSee, this could only happen to me
G C Riff
I must find that Florida Key
AmNeed a little sunshine in my beer
BbThinking 'bout eloping
FNothing's locked, never will be
GEverything is open
CThere's only one thing that lurks in my mind
GIt's nothing here, nothing I've left behind
There's something up fDmront, something I hope toF find
DmI'm gonna set sail again tonigFht
DmRound the horn and in the clear mFoonlight
COr at least I'm sure it's going to be
G C Riff x2
Soon as I find my Florida Key
